Abstract

The invention is a Quick Access feature designed to assist users access an object in its protected container quickly and intuitively. This feature may be attached to a pouch, a bag, a pocket or another item designed to carry objects, including apparel that has built-in pockets or attached pockets such as those on shirt or pants. While the invention allows quick access, it does not compromise accessibility nor security of the contained objects. Moreover, the reinforced piece that creates the Quick Access feature can be easily and economically made using a variety of economical manufacturing processes (molding, metal stamping, etc.) and using economical material (plastic, metal, leather, etc.). If the container is made of prefabricated material (hard leather, metal, hardened plastic, etc.), the feature can be implemented directly on the container.
